For a variety of unavoidable reasons, conferencing software is now becoming popular. We're sure you've used meeting software more or less, such as attending online courses, business meetings, interviews, and so on. It's important to choose a meeting program that you can trust to ensure that you don't miss out on the important stuff when you can't be there in person. Such as the Zoom Meeting.

Of course, there are times when you may not be able to attend a Zoom meeting in full, and this is where the recording feature becomes extremely important. Using the record option allows you to review important conversations after the Zoom meeting. In this article, we will explain how to start an audio recording in a Zoom meeting with or without the granted ability of the host. Let's go ahead.

Part 1. How to Start Audio Recording on Zoom with Permission

Zoom meeting has online, desktop client, and mobile app versions that enable you to attend or host a meeting on it anytime. And the recording feature is also available on these versions. But the difference is that the recording option can only be enabled by the host, and the attendees are unable to use it without a granted ability of recording by the host.

Thus, if you're a host of a Zoom meeting, you can enable the recording for attendees. And if you're a participant in the meeting, you can ask for permission to start the recording. Furthermore, the recording notice will be displayed on the Zoom meeting as soon as the recording is started in the Zoom meeting, whether by the host or by the participants. If you don't mind that, please refer to the steps below to audio record on Zoom meeting.
